Romans 6:3
King James Version
7 Jun 2026
“Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?”
Χριστός
The one set apart and equipped for a specific task. Oil was poured on kings, priests and prophets in the Old Testament — the anointing meant: this one is chosen, this one is sent. Jesus stands up in Nazareth and reads Isaiah — and then says: this is Me. I am the one sent.
